Total media revenue fell 12 percent to C$468 million. The year-ago quarter had recorded a distribution from Major League Baseball to the Toronto Blue Jays.

Excluding the impact, media revenue would have been stable year-on-year, the company said.

Wireless revenue declined marginally during the quarter.

Excluding one-time items, Rogers earned 78 Canadian cents per share during the first quarter, while analysts on an average had estimated a profit of 94 Canadian cents, according to IBES data from Refinitiv.

The Toronto-based company’s net income fell to C$391 million ($292.45 million), or 76 Canadian cents per share, in the first quarter ended March 31, from C$425 million, or 80 Canadian cents per share, a year earlier.
